Arroyo de Abengibre

Running through Castilla-La Mancha, Spain, Arroyo de Abengibre is the kind of stream that fishes well at the right water level. Drop a lure or fly into the bubble line at the head of a pool and let the current swing it past holding fish. Long, slow glides at Arroyo de Abengibre hold the bigger fish; the broken water above and below holds the smaller, more aggressive ones. Stay quiet on the bank — river fish are easily spooked.
